Everything comes back to crypto these days…at least for me. Bitcoin and Ethereum did not budge lower during the momentum selloff last week. Now they continue to move higher.

Momentum Can Be Lonely
The Nasdaq entered correction territory down TEN percent and the Dow is at all-time highs. That is not fake news. Prices do not lie. The Nasdaq 100 (where I hunt and fish) and the Dow Jones have diverged the most since 1993. I don’t know if this is the beginning of the end or the …

Stimulus (Sentiment) Sunday – The America Rescue Plan.
A LOT of money is getting poured into the economy right now from the ‘America Rescue Plan’. I don’t need any of it so I am hoping it gets to the right people. My spending has to be down 50-80 percent this past year (I did just get my Gretzky and Jordan limited edition hoodies …
Paying 2 and 20…There Is A Time And A Place

SPAC Week Continues…Bigger, Louder, Faster…The SPAC Locomotive Continues…For Now
Because it is SPAC week, I thought I would answer the number one question being asked…how does the SPAC work? Bloomberg’s Matt Levine does a really nice job of explaining the SPAC mechanics here: A special purpose acquisition company is a blank-check company that raises money from investors in an initial public offering, puts the …
SPAC Week Continues…Why We Launched A SPAC
I started SPAC week on my blog this Sunday and shared our S-1. Today I wanted to give more of the backstory. Joe Weisenthal and Tracy Alloway from Bloomberg had me on their Odd Lots podcast to tell the whole story and to talk about the SPAC market in general. The feedback on this one …
